In the present paper, we study the geometric properties of the invariant submanifold of an almost Kenmotsu structure whose Riemannian curvature tensor has (𝜅, 𝜇, 𝜈)-nullity distribution. In this connection, the necessary and sufficient conditions are investigated for an invariant submanifold of an almost Kenmotsu (𝜅, 𝜇, 𝜈)-space to be totally geodesic under the behavior of functions 𝜅, 𝜇, and 𝜈.

In the present paper, we study generalized Ricci solitons on N(κ)-contact metric manifolds, in particular, we consider when the potential vector field is the concircular vector field. We also consider generalized gradient Ricci solitons, and verify our results with an example.

The notion of quasi-Einstein metric in theoretical physics and in relation with string theory is equivalent to the notion of Ricci soliton in differential geometry. Quasi-Einstein metrics or Ricci solitons serve also as solution to Ricci flow equation, which is an evolution equation for Riemannian metrics on a Riemannian manifold. Quasi-Einstein metrics are subject of great interest in both mathematics and theoretical physics. In this paper the notion of Ricci 𝜌-soliton as a generalization of Ricci soliton is defined. We are motivated by the Ricci-Bourguignon flow to define this concept. We show that if a 3-dimensional almost Kenmotsu Einstein manifold M is a 𝜌-soliton, then M is a Kenmotsu manifold of constant sectional curvature -1 and the 𝜌-soliton is expanding with λ = 2.

The object of the present paper is to study N(k)-quasi-Einstein manifolds. We study an N(k)-quasi-Einstein manifold satisfying the curvature conditions $R({\xi},X){\cdot}Z=0$, $Z(X,{\xi}){\cdot}R=0$, and $P({\xi},X){\cdot}Z=0$, where R, P and Z denote the Riemannian curvature tensor, the projective curvature tensor and Z tensor respectively. Next we prove that the curvature condition $C{\cdot}Z=0$ holds in an N(k)-quasi-Einstein manifold, where C is the conformal curvature tensor. We also study Z-recurrent N(k)-quasi-Einstein manifolds. Finally, we construct an example of an N(k)-quasi-Einstein manifold and mention some physical examples.

In the present paper is to classify Beta-almost (${\beta}$-almost) Ricci solitons and ${\beta}$-almost gradient Ricci solitons on almost $CoK{\ddot{a}}hler$ manifolds with ${\xi}$ belongs to ($k,{\mu}$)-nullity distribution. In this paper, we prove that such manifolds with V is contact vector field and $Q{\phi}={\phi}Q$ is ${\eta}$-Einstein and it is steady when the potential vector field is pointwise collinear to the reeb vectoer field. Moreover, we prove that a ($k,{\mu}$)-almost $CoK{\ddot{a}}hler$ manifolds admitting ${\beta}$-almost gradient Ricci solitons is isometric to a sphere.

The main intention of the current paper is to characterize certain properties of *-conformal Ricci solitons on non-coKähler (𝜅, 𝜇)-almost coKähler manifolds. At first, we find that there does not exist *-conformal Ricci soliton if the potential vector field is the Reeb vector field θ. We also prove that the non-coKähler (𝜅, 𝜇)-almost coKähler manifolds admit *-conformal Ricci solitons if the potential vector field is the infinitesimal contact transformation. It is also studied that there does not exist *-conformal gradient Ricci solitons on the said manifolds. An example has been constructed to verify the obtained results.

This work focuses on the behavior of the static analysis of functionally graded plates materials (FGMs) with porosities that may possibly occur inside the functionally graded materials (FGMs) during their fabrication. For this purpose a new refined plate theory is used in this work, it contains only four unknowns, unlike five unknowns for other theories. This new model meets the nullity of the transverse shear stress at the upper and lower surfaces of the plate. The parabolic distribution of transverse shear stresses along the thickness of the plate is taken into account in this analysis; the material properties of the FGM plate vary a power law distribution in terms of volume fraction of the constituents. The rule of mixture is modified to describe and approximate material properties of the FG plates with porosity phases. The validity of this theory is studied by comparing some of the present results with other higher-order theories reported in the literature, the influence of material parameter, the volume fraction of porosity and the thickness ratio on the behavior mechanical P-FGM plate are represented by numerical examples.

In this research paper, the free vibrational response of laminated composite plates is investigated using a non-polynomial refined shear deformation theory (NP-RSDT). The most interesting feature of this theory is the parabolic distribution of transverse shear deformations while ensuring the conditions of nullity of shear stresses at the free surfaces of the plate without requiring the Shear correction factor "Ks". A fourth-nodded isoparametric element with four degrees of freedom per node is employed for laminated composite plates. The numerical analysis of simply supported square anti-symmetric cross-ply and angle-ply laminated plate is carried out using a special discretization based on four-node finite element method which four degrees of freedom per node. Several numerical results are presented to show the effect of the coupling parameters of the plate such as the modulus ratios, the thickness ratio and the plate layers number on adimensional eigen frequencies. All numerical results presented using the current finite element method (FEM) is presented in 3D curve form.

In this paper, an exact analytical solution is developed for the analysis of the post-buckling non-linear response of simply supported deformable symmetric composite beams. For this, a new theory of higher order shear deformation is used for the analysis of composite beams in post-buckling. Unlike any other shear deformation beam theories, the number of functions unknown in the present theory is only two as the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, while three unknowns are needed in the case of the other beam theories. The theory presents a parabolic distribution of transverse shear stresses, which satisfies the nullity conditions on both sides of the beam without a shear correction factor. The shear effect has a significant contribution to buckling and post-buckling behaviour. The results of this analysis show that classical and first-order theories underestimate the amplitude of the buckling whereas all the theories considered in this study give results very close to the static response of post-buckling. The numerical results obtained with the novel theory are not only much more accurate than those obtained using the Euler-Bernoulli theory but are almost comparable to those obtained using higher order theories, Accuracy and effectiveness of the current theory.
